One thing nobody has touched on yet is the D50 has an internal focus motor so you can use AF lenses and they auto focus on your D50. If you plan on using your current Nikon lenses and they are Af and not AF-S you will be focusing the lenses manually.
Good point, but I am getting new lenses with the Nikon, but can't with the Canon. Another reason why I was leaning towards the Nikon

Which ancient camera you were pleased with means nothing. The question is which modern camera will best suit your future needs. Frankly the Nikon is better, but if you have been satisfied for that long with your current cameras it is a guaranteed thing that either Nikon or Canon will blow you mind... and make you happy for years.
Yes, I agree they are relics in the world of technology. I am leaning towards the Nikon since it will have more of what I am looking, I just wanted some input before I make the big decision. Thankyou for the advice!

Actually you did a perfect Job with the title, unlike many others here. My favorite title is "HELP".
Oh okay! Thanks. Haha, yea, I prefer a short and sweet title that gets the point across
Both the T7i and D5600 are in my price range
I was more pleased with the Canon, but the Canon T1i is very different from the Nikon D50 so it's hard to compare them on the same level IMO

Is it safe to assume the title means something?
For the OP, go for the Nikon.
Sorry, I'm new to this forum and am used to posing the question as the topic.
OP?

Which cameras are you considering for the upgrade?
The Nikon D5600 and the Canon Rebel T7i are the two I am deciding between :)
I am debating between the Nikon D5600 and the Canon Rebel T7i
I have been using a Nikon D50 and a Canon Rebel T1i and looking to upgrade in the next week. I put more emphasis on stills and very rarely do video, close to never. The Nikon bundle I am looking at is more inexpensive than the Canon's and includes more accessories and equipment, I am leaning more towards the Nikon since I will receive more for my money. Both cameras seem pretty similar to me overall but I would like to hear from more experienced photographers. I wouldn't say I am a beginner but I am a college Art major who wants (more like desperately needs) an upgrade since I did all I could do with my other cameras but don't want to go into debt. I don't need the newest and the best, but something reliable and cost effective. Any advice is welcome!
Thank you!
PS, the Nikon D7200, although is available as a refurb, isn't something I will be able to afford with the lenses and everything else on top of the body. The Sony Alphas are also quite pricey when looking into the lenses and other equipment plus has less options than Canon and Nikon, so I would prefer to stick to the two options I have asked about, thanks again!!! :)
